Day Drinking Lyrics

Everybody's always waiting on Friday
Watching that clock and sittin' on go
Whatcha' say we find a little warm sunshine
And open up an umbrella on the patio

Don't need a reason or a happy hour
Ain't hanging around for a fireworks show
Get a head start a little sip of somethin'
Off and runnin', here we go
1, 2, 3 here we go

Don't want to wait til the sun's sinking
We could be feeling all right
I know you know what I'm thinking
Why don't we do a little Day Drinking
Why don't we do a little day drinking

Blame it on the work day
Blame it on the heatwave
Blame it on the tick-tock moving too slow
Blame it on any old thing you want to
Ready get set, baby here we go

Don't want to wait til the sun's sinking
We could be feeling all right
I know you know what I'm thinking
Why don't we do a little day drinking
Day drinking, day drinking
Why don't we do a little day drinking

Don't want to wait til the sun's sinking
We could be feeling all right
I know you know what I'm thinking
Why don't we do a little day drinking

Don't want to wait til the sun's sinking
We could be feeling all right
I know you know what I'm thinking
Why don't we do a little day drinking
Why don't we do a little day drinking
Why don't we do a little day drinking

Day Drinking

The first single from Little Big Town's sixth album, the song was released digitally June 3, 2014 and sent to Country radio six days later.

The song was penned by Little Big Town's Jimi Westbrook, Karen Fairchild and Phillip Sweet with co-writers Barry Dean and Troy Verges. Westbrook compared its vibe to enjoying a few nice cold drinks on a hot summer day. "It makes me think about those summer days when all that's on the agenda is hanging out, relaxing, and having a good time with friends," he said. "So, if that's your plan, here's your song! 'Why don't we do a little day drinking?'"

That rhythmic whistling you hear in the chorus happened by accident when the songwriters sat down to pen the song. "I remember that we had come from the road, because I remember being very hoarse, like really road weary voice-wise," said Karen Fairchild. "So, when we were messing with melodies on the chorus, I started singing something but I couldn't hit it, so I whistled it."

"It was out of necessity," she added. "I was whistling because I couldn't sing what I really wanted to sing. And I was actually emulating what the mando[lin] was doing. It was just this hodgepodge of like, 'Oh, that should be the chorus and the whistle's cool.'"

The video, directed by Declan Whitebloom (Demi Lovato, The Fray, One Direction), was shot in multiple locations in Miami and features the foursome stuck on the Old Port Bridge, day drinking and lounging on the beach, as well as performing in front of a graphic black and white graffiti wall in the Wynwood Arts District. "We had a lot of fun shooting the video," Phillip Sweet told People Country. "It captured the spirit and energy of the song."

Fairchild admitted to Billboard magazine that though the band felt there is something special about the song, it wasn't an instant feeling. "We didn't know it really, but with 'Day Drinking,' we had a blast that day because we were drinking and writing songs," she said. "We left it alone, then a couple of weeks later, Barry Dean and Troy Verges sent us a souped up work tape of what we had done. Then, we thought this is very fun and very cool."

The song featured in a commercial for Twisted Tea - Hard Iced Tea.

Trying Whining

Before recording One Time Bells, the group's full-length debut album, they recorded many of the songs as 8-track demos. This was recorded in that way, and they liked it so much that they used that version for the album. It was done quickly, but it sounds just like the group wanted.

Mulholland Drive Lyrics

Mulholland Drive

The Never Ending is a Los Angeles sextet formed in 2013. They consist of vocalist Debby Ryan, guitarists Kyle Moore and Carman Kubanda, bassist Edwin Carranza, keyboardist Harry Allen and drummer Johnny Franco. The band was previously known as Debby and The Never Ending after their frontwoman, who is recognisable to many as the star of Disney Channel's Jessie and previously of The Suite Life on Deck.

This sweet and smooth ballad was released as the lead single off The Never Ending's debut EP One. It finds Ryan cautioning against losing yourself under the bright lights of stardom "The boys and I decided to share 'Mulholland Drive' as the first look into our music as The Never Ending," she told Billboard magazine. "We're all young artists in L.A., fighting every day to find our purpose without losing who we are. With any type of spotlight, the shadows get more noticeable. 'Mulholland Drive' tells the story of fighting for what's light, what's right, what's real, and what's never ending."

Mulholland Drive is a 21-mile road in the eastern Santa Monica Mountains of Southern California and is home to some of the most exclusive and most expensive residences in the world. It is named after pioneering Los Angeles civil engineer William Mulholland.

The road is featured in numerous movies, songs, and novels, most famously serving as the title of a 2001 David Lynch neo-noir film about an aspiring actress named Betty Elms.

1985 Lyrics

1985

This song is about kitschy bands that reference the mid-1980's in their lyrics, sound, or appearance. It is not about anything going on with the band members at that time in their lives since they were all ten or younger.

The writing of this song is credited to the entire band. For main songwriter (also lead singer and drummer) Nick Stumpf, this is not his preferred style of writing songs. He says that more people means a slower process and sometimes a less pure product. (thanks to Nick Stumpf for giving us these Songfacts in an interview)

Lighthouse

Sambora debuted this song at an event aimed at raising awareness about the abuse of heroin and prescription painkillers along the Jersey shore. Speaking to reporters before the event, the Bon Jovi guitarist acknowledged he once abused drugs but said he's clean now. "I got firsthand experience," he said. "I never did heroin, but obviously I did other stuff."

Sambora originally titled the song "Needles On The Shore" before deciding to change the name. "I wanted to do something optimistic, a beacon of light and hope," the Associated Press reports him saying. "Everyone needs that light when they're far off the shore."

The lyrics include:

Those who matter don't judge
When you're swimming with the tide in the wake of a flood.

Sambora told the crowd at the event. "I'm mostly here as the father of a 16-year-old girl. I'm scared. But we can't be scared silent. Together we can make a difference because this epidemic has to stop."

Proceeds from the single release went toward a drug treatment facility envisioned for the region.

Down Now Lyrics

Down Now

Written by lead singer/drummer Nick Stumpf and guitarist/keyboardist Josh Wise. They were listening to a lot of Radiohead at the time and that sound can be heard in parts of the song. Stumpf says, "tons of artists influence the group... there are too many to name."

Since there are several tracks of drums on the studio version of the song, Stumpf had to alter his beat in order to perform it live. This is the exception to the rule for the band since they usually try to perform songs live as close to the studio version as possible.

World on Fire Lyrics

Well they say that we are tragic
And they say we're born to lose
You're the misfit, I'm the sinner,
You're the heathen, I'm the fool
But today you'll be the master or the slave,
It's up to you
Or my beautiful disaster take me anywhere you choose

Don't fight it, ignite it
This much I'm sure

I think it's time to set this World on Fire
I think it's time to push it to the edge
Burn it to the ground and trip the wire
You may never be this good again

It's like a new religion speaking tongues
come see the light
Do not trip on inhibitions that will only waste my time
Let me tempt you with the evils of the flesh and so much more
Like a Babylon redeemer, like a pusher, like a whore

Just try it, you'll like it
I'll give you more

I think it's time to set this world on fire
I think it's time to push it to the edge
Burn it to the ground and trip the wire
You may never be this good again

It's so dark, I can't see
All the truth inside us
All I want is to feel something that's real before the end

Close the door
Turn the key
Do you like
What you see

Kill the lights
Oh come to me
Set it off tonight
Baby just like fire on gasoline

I think it's time to set this world on fire
I think it's time to push it to the edge
I'm so fuckin' bored so trip the wire
You may never be this good again

Just trip the wire
This world's on fire
Just trip the wire
You may never be this good again

World on Fire

The title track of Slash's third album, this was released as the first single from the project. Asked by Blabbermouth.net why he led the album with this song, Slash replied: "I think there's a lot of singles on the record, but it's a good kick-off song. It's up-tempo, aggressive, it's a fun song. I love the whole world on fire, larger-than-life kind of vibe that the title and lyrics have."

Asked about the song's meaning, Slash replied: "To be literal about it, we have the global warming thing. But that's not the catalyst for the title. 'World On Fire' is more of a tongue-in-cheek, positive, fun thing — it has a lot of sexual connotations in the actual song itself. It's a euphemism for going a little bit crazy and pulling out all the stops."

Slash told The Pulse of Radio why he decided to title the album after this tune. "It was a song on the record basically about sex," he said. "But when I started looking for an album title, something about that title stuck out to me. I think it was because a lot of stuff has been going on - the whole thing with the Malaysian flight, and Israel, and all the stuff going on with Russia at the time. So 'World On Fire' all of a sudden had a much broader connotation."

Sunday Night is Fair Lyrics

Sunday Night is Fair

When they recorded their debut album, the group was destitute. They had no money and had been sleeping on various floors and couches. Lead singer Nick Stumpf described them as being "at the end of our rope... we had been homeless for about 9 months."

Nick Stumpf wrote the lyrics the day before he was supposed to recorded the vocals. It was a Sunday night, and he took a walk around Manhattan to get inspiration. The city was empty, and what Stumpf saw on his walk felt similar to the mood of the song's music. Sunday nights are also a time when he feels exhausted from the week and weekend, which also seemed to fit what became "Sunday Night is Fair."

This song also features a Wurlitzer, a type of electric piano. Stumpf says that many people mistake the sound of it for a guitar. (thanks to Nick Stumpf for giving us these Songfacts in an interview)

Wrong Club Lyrics

(Oh oh oh oh)
Hey, If you can’t move your feet
You wanna stand like a woman
You wanna stand with me
If you don’t seem to fit in
You wanna take some cover
You wanna leave with me

Did I ever tell you about the way I wanna feel
Giving it up and fly away
Did I ever tell you about the good times that you get
Don’t know if you got another day

(Oh oh oh oh)
Hey! I’m in the Wrong Club
Listening to this shit
(Oh oh oh oh)
Hey! I’m in the wrong life, someone get me out of it
(Oh oh oh oh)

And if you wanna come in
We can sit on boxes
I keep everything
Oh, and if you're standing in the corner
You can tell me you don’t wanna talk
And I tell you how it’s always been

Did I ever tell you about the way I wanna feel
Giving it up and fly away
And did I ever tell you about the good times that you get
Don’t know if you got another day

(Oh oh oh oh)
Hey! I’m in the wrong club
Listening to this shit
(Oh oh oh oh)
Hey! I’m in the wrong life, someone get me out of it
(Oh oh oh oh)

I ain't moving though the beat is on
Everyone's gonna let me know it
Get me out somewhere I belong
Come with me, we can over throw it
What’s the matter with the crazy fool
Keep it in or I can go and show it
No DJ never saved my life

(Oh oh oh oh)
Hey! I’m in the wrong club
Listening to this shit
(DJ never saved my life)
I’m in the wrong life, someone get me out of it

(Oh oh oh oh)
Hey! I’m in the wrong club
Listening to this shit
I’m in the wrong life, someone get me out of it

And everyone's gonna let me know it
Come with me, we can over throw it
Keep it in or I can go and show it

(Oh oh oh oh)
Hey!
No DJ never saved my life

And everyone's gonna let me know it
Come with me, we can over throw it
Keep it in or I can go and show

(Oh oh oh oh)
Hey!

And everyone's gonna let me know it
Come with me, we can over throw it
Keep it in or I can go and show it

(Oh oh oh oh)
Hey!

Wrong Club

The first single from the Ting Tings third album, this euphoric Disco-infused number finds Katie White trying to let go of her troubles on the dance floor. "It's about feeling like you don't fit in," she told NME, "finding someone you can leave with - finding someone like you - finding someone who likes you - even if you can't dance like the rest."

The song's music video was filmed by the French/Italian fashion director Lisa Paclet (Dior, Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent). It finds Katie White dancing around a light show in an old Parisian warehouse.

This is rumored to be about oral sex, but it isn't. It is about a man who had to work with the band on a T-Shirt design. He either had a pierced tongue or a wart on his tongue and he gave the band a really hard time.

During the chorus, lead singer Jon Davis shouts a lot of unintelligible things. He claims it is just gibberish, but many fans believe there are actual words being said. (thanks, Nick - Paramus, NJ, for above 2)

Aerials Lyrics

Life is a waterfall
We're one in the river
And one again after the fall

Swimming through the void
We hear the word
We lose ourselves
But we find it all?

Cause we are the ones that want to play
Always want to go
But you never want to stay

And we are the ones that want to choose
Always want to play
But you never want to lose

Aerials, in the sky
When you lose small mind
You free your life

Life is a waterfall
We drink from the river
Then we turn around and put up our walls

Swimming through the void
We hear the word
We lose ourselves
But we find it all?

Cause we are the ones that want to play
Always want to go
But you never want to stay

And we are the ones that want to choose
Always want to play
But you never want to lose

Aerials, in the sky
When you lose small mind
You free your life
Aerials, so up high
When you free your eyes
Eternal prize
Aerials, in the sky
When you lose small mind
You free your life
Aerials, so up high
When you free your eyes
Eternal prize

Aerials

This song is about how people can lose their identities and become just like everyone else. Some lyric analysis:
"Life is a waterfall,we're one in the river, one again after the fall." - We all start off the same and we all end up the same.
"Swimming through the void, we hear the words,we lose ourselves, but we find it all." - As we go through life we are told lessons, but we ignore them. We forget who we really are in the mix of seeking the synthetic lifestyle, and that's the price to lose who we really are.
"'Cause we are the ones that wanna play, always want to go, but you never want to stay." - We always want to be part of the scene. We strive for what we want and when we get it, it still does not satisfy.
"And we are the ones that want to choose, always wanna play, but you never wanna lose." - We want and want. We do whatever we can but if trouble is ever near we do whatever we can to maintain innocence.
"When you lose small mind you free your life." - When we stop to see the full picture is when we really have control of our lives.
"Life is a waterfall, we drink from the river then we turn around and put up our walls." - We take and take and in the end we give nothing. This shows how greedy, oblivious and inconsiderate people can be. (thanks, joe - visa, CA)

The final track on the Toxicity album and the third single. The lyrics were written by Serj Tankian and Daron Malakian. Malakian wrote the music. (thanks, Nick - Paramus, NJ)

On the CD, right after the song ends, another song called "Arto" comes on. "Arto" is based on a traditional Armenian song with a chant that is played at funerals in the Armenian community. It is named "Arto" because their friend Arto Tuncboyaciyan played a duduk (a reed instrument similar to an oboe) on the track. Daron and Serj's grandparents both wept when they heard it. (thanks, Anthony - Willow Wood, OH)

Daron Malakian once said that this song is about the beauty of retarded children and how they see the world. They have also said that it is about nothing. (thanks, Ankabandoodoo - lala, MT)

The band performed this on Saturday Night Live in 2005. The first song they performed, "B.Y.O.B.," caused some controversy because they swore on the air.
